Question
How and when to use birth control pills?? i am planning to use it since me and my partner is sexually active. When is the right time for us to have sex after the first intake  of the pill?

Answer
Dear Carla, have you started taking the pills yet? If not, I don't recommend this hormonal birth control method. There have been studies showing long-term and short-term risks from hormonal birth control, including the pill. What kind are you going to take? Please tell me more details and email me at CHERYL51@aol.com so we can talk privately. Hope to hear from you soon.
